May 2025 Update

It always astounds me when I realise how much the UK Tarot Conference has influenced and attracted attention from overseas, connections made with strangers, whose only link between us is Tarot, have been a huge and unexpected blessing.   I promised that this year, as we reach the end of the major arcana that the event would be special, and thanks to our international Tarot family, it really is shaping up to be more than I could have dared.   You will note I am being rather cryptic, but I am always reluctant to shout from the rooftops until I know 100% things are in place, we are 90% there!

There are only 10 in-person seats left for the 2025 conference. of course, there is always the virtual option, which we have reduced in price to make it accessible to all.  Virtual attendance offers access to knowledge and professional development.  Our ticket includes two days of live viewing, with recordings available for later viewing, (accommodating different time zones and personal commitments). Joining virtually, you will be able to connect with speakers and attendees worldwide, receive download presentation materials, and any supplementary content provided by speakers.

The talented Chris Butler has been working hard on creating Arcana 78, the full deck to complete the Major Arcana deck created to celebrate 20 years of the UK Tarot Conference. The concept of the minors and courts is a stroke of genius, and we will be printing a VERY limited print run.  I know this will be a collector’s item. I will share more next month.

If you follow on social media, you will see that hard copy programmes have arrived, a bundle has been sent to the Atlantis Bookshop.  If you are in London, pop in and grab a copy.  You can also download the programme from the website booking page.   Sponsors once again have been beyond generous and goodie bags will be extravagant!

Finally, you will see on the programme two events I have in the diary for 2026, the ‘Tarot by the Sea’ retreat, Deal, Kent, in March, and ‘The Convergence of Tarot’ event on 6th June in Canterbury.  The retreat is almost sold out, those who came last year loved it so much they have rebooked, but a couple of rooms are left.  http://tarotconference.co.uk/special-events/

That’s all for now, have a great month!

    The countdown to the 22nd UK Tarot Conference has officially begun, and as always, this close to the event, I find myself lying in bed, wide awake as ideas and reminders flood my mind around 3 a.m.— my memory leaping into action in the quiet hours 😊. September is always a busy month, it’s a…

    I had a truly magical time in Salem. It was my first visit to Massachusetts, and it far exceeded my expectations. Spending time with Betty Jane, who travelled from Canada, was a real highlight.

    The 2025 ‘Fool’ conference is wrapped up until next year, and what a blast it was.  I am already working on 2026, more on this later. There was something very special about the energy this year.   I can’t quite put my finger on it, but the new venue worked well, the food was excellent, the…

    As the conference gets ever closer, the excitement is building as the first shipment of goodies arrived today, courtesy of our friends at Lo Scarabeo.

    November tends to be a slow month for work, which I deliberately chose. I close my books to focus on things I’ve neglected. Right now, I’m going through my Tarot collection—some decks date back decades, and I honestly don’t know what to do with everything. I’ve accumulated over 100 books and more than 300 decks,…

    July is typically a quiet period for our conference preparations, aside from following up with attendees who have been holding a ticket on deposit I took the opportunity to take a break with my family and enjoyed a wonderful 7-day stretch of sunshine in Marbella (what is going on with our weather)? As life has…
